4 or more servings
1 ½ Tbsp. vegetable oil
12 oz. white button mushrooms, wiped clean and halved, if small, quartered if medium, cut into sixths, if large
¾ lb. beef tenderloin, cut into 1/8 inch strips
½ cup canned low-sodium beef broth
1 Tbsp. unsalted butter
1 small onion, minced (about ½ cup)
1 tsp. tomato paste
1 ½ tsp. dark brown sugar
1 Tbsp. flour
½ cup canned low-sodium chicken broth
½ cup dry white wine
1/3 cup sour cream
8 oz. egg noodles, cooked in salted water, drained, and tossed with 2 Tbsp. butter
Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in heavy 12 inch skillet over medium-high heat until hot and shimmering, but not smoking, about 2 minutes; swirl to coat pan. Add mushrooms and cook over high heat without stirring for 30 seconds; season with salt and pepper and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are lightly browned, about 4 minutes longer. Transfer to medium bowl.
Return skillet to high heat, add remaining ½ Tbsp. oil; swirl to coat pan. Place tenderloin strips in skillet. Using tongs, spread the meat into a single layer, making sure that strips do not touch, and cook without turning until well-browned on first side, 2 minutes. Turn strips and cook on second side until well-browned, about 1 minute longer. Season with salt and pepper to taste and transfer to bowl with mushrooms.
Add beef broth to skillet, scraping up browned bits on pan bottom with wooden spoon; simmer until broth is reduced to ¼ cup, about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer broth to bowl with mushrooms and beef, scraping skillet clean with rubber spatula.
Put noodles into boil now so that they are done when the stroganoff is.
Return skillet to medium-low heat and add butter; when butter foams, add onion, tomato paste, and brown sugar. Cook, stirring frequently, until onion is lightly browned and softened, about 6 minutes; stir in flour until incorporated. Gradually whisk in chicken broth and wine; increases heat to medium-high and bring to boil, whisking occasionally, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened, about 2 minutes. Whisk liquid from mushrooms and beef into sauce and simmer to incorporate. Stir about ½ cup of hot sauce into sour cream, then stir mixture back into sauce. Add mushrooms and beef; heat to warm through, about 1 minute. Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper and serve over buttered egg noodles.
